    Descrição

    Join us if you are looking for being a part of a substainable farm and social project.

    We are an agroecological farm, established in 2015, based in Niaguis, 12 km from Ziguinchor. The objective is to grow what we eat and to eat what we grow with the aim of making money in order to foster local development in such a way to create local employment especially for women and young people, to reduce poverty and illegal immigration, which are significant issues within our community. The project has already inspired other people in the village who have followed Bourama’s example and created their own farm to make a living.

    Bourama created this project with his friends. Bourama has a master’s degree in international cooperation and local development. After his studies in Ziguinchor, he decided to come back to his village and start with the project.

    Rejoins-nous si tu souhaites t'engager au sein d'une ferme agroécologique associative !

    La Ferme Agroécologique a été créée en 2015 avec pour mission de promouvoir la consommation locale de produits sains afin de réduire les importations et l’empreinte écologique des transports. La ferme pratique différentes activités de maraîchage, d’arboriculture et d’apiculture respectueuses de l’environnement en vue de créer des emplois stables pour améliorer les conditions de vie des populations locales et contribuer à la lutte contre l’immigration illégale. Ce projet a inspiré d’autres villageois, qui ont à leur tour créé une ferme pour subvenir à leurs besoins.

    Bourama, le fondateur de la ferme, a lancé ce projet avec ses amis après être retourné au village à la fin de son master en coopération internationale et développement local.

    Rejoignez-nous et vivez une expérience au cœur de la campagne Casamançaise, à Niaguis, à seulement 12 km de Ziguinchor !

  • Acomodação

    Acomodação

    We live in a small Senegalese house built in 2021 on the farm. The farm is in the middle of the forest and surrounded by fields and nature. No neighbour, just peace and silence. Day after day we are building new infrastructures to make it more and more comfortable. Our electricity comes from our solar panel system.

    There are 2 rooms for welcoming our volunteers. Each room has 2 mattresses and mosquito nets. You will share the room and you will live as we do. Currently, we have 2 showers and a squat toilets.

    We usually share breakfast, lunch and dinner all together. We eat mostly rice and fish, sometime veggies from our garden. However, we are not used to cook great variety of meals so you're welcome to cook a special dish from your country ! Also, feel free to buy extra-food as you can / want. For example fruits, more vegetable, butter, local honey or pasta. There's a small market in Niaguis, you can go by yourself or just ask the guys to buy what you need. Also, Ziguinchor with bigger supermarkets is not far away.

    Nous vivons et travaillons sur place, une petite case sénégalaise construite en 2021, située en pleine forêt, entourée de champs et de nature. Pas de voisin, juste la paix et le silence. Chaque jour, nous améliorons les infrastructures pour plus de confort. Notre électricité provient de notre système de panneaux solaires.

    Il y a 2 chambres pour les bénévoles, chacune équipée de 2 matelas avec moustiquaires. Les chambres sont partagées, et vous vivrez dans les mêmes conditions que nous. Actuellement, nous avons 2 douches et un squat toilettes.


    Nous partageons les 3 repas de la journée ensemble. Nous mangeons principalement du riz, du poisson et quelques légumes. Cependant, notre cuisine reste simple et vous êtes invités à préparer des plats spéciaux de votre pays si vous le souhaitez. Vous pouvez acheter des aliments supplémentaires si vous en ressentez le besoin, comme des fruits, des légumes, du café, du miel local ou des pâtes. A Niaguis, un petit marché local est accessible à vélo. A Ziguinchor, un grand marché et un supermarché sont là pour plus de choix.
